Hi All,

I just got a green toast message that MSAS allowed something, but the toast
went away too fast for me to know what it was. I've searched all over the
console trying to find a list of events so I can see what it was.

Any ideas where I can find out what just happened?

Hi

Probably with menu Tools, Real time protection, View
security agnet events.
 
Hi Plun,

Yes, that's it. I'd looked there before but was expecting something else. I
uninstalled something and a Run Once item was added to my startup. It was
telling me that the entry (and registry entry) was added.

Thanks to you and also to Andre.

This kind of fits in this thread although you've gotten your answers
from others. I have installed MAS on quite a number of my customer's
computers and notice the characteristics of certain operations that they
all have in common. One of them is this message you're referring to
stating it has allowed "something". I was installing an antivirus program
for someone today and *several* of those came up at once, but all the
subsequent messages came up *behind* the first one, and then went away in
that order. So the only one that was readable was the first one... which
remained on top. I've noticed this several times on different machines so
I thought I'd just mention it as a possible "bug". Since all of the
messages have been "green" I haven't really worried too much about it.
You may ask "why" I'm installing this beta program on customer's
computers. The answer is... even with it's bugs and imperfections, I'm
impressed with it. A computer comes in dirty as sin, I run the top two
"freebies" first and they find 1500-2000 objects. Then I install MAS and
it finds a multitude more! Plus I like the way it runs automatically once
a day and keeps itself updated. It doesn't seem to be a resource hog when
it's running and you can keep on doing what you're doing while it's
running.
 
The notifications being unreadable in various ways under various
circumstances are most certainly a bug. I'm sure this behavior will be
significantly changed by beta2.

I also have it installed on most clients machines, although I disabled
real-time protection on my mother-in-laws machine. She would be quite upset
about the popups, and probably wouldn't be able to read them.

The only serious issue I've had even while cleaning very dirty machines, was
a runaway log file, which wasn't hard to deal with. It was on a server, but
I caught it over the weekend--the server sends me hourly ping messages, and
I investigated when they quit. It was still in good enough shape that I
could get in by Remote Desktop and fix the issue.
